A fun series of science posts featuring Mathematica applied to some aspects of some of the 100 stars and objects from Florien Freistetter's wonderful book 'A History of the Universe in 100 Stars'. You can get read about some of the featured stars at this Google Books preview, or get the English version audiobook on Audible.
Each post in this trail explores some aspect of modelling in Wolfram Mathematica and Wolfram Alpha as a resource of astronomical data with a single composite image created from snapshots of a Mathematica Notebook.
While this science trails references some aspects of the book, it's about Astronomy modelling in Mathematica, not the book, and does not reproduce the descriptions from the book; for the full descriptions read Florien Freistetter's book.
